Fill in the blank: When you paddle a boat in the water. the force of your paddle will push the water which will apply an equal force back on you. There is very little resistance to this motion because there is a limited _______ force between the canoe and the surface of the water due to the smooth surface

​

Respuesta :

Answer:

frictional

Explanation:

This scenario follows Newton's third law of motion which alludes to the fact that for every force or action exerted by a person on a body there is an equal and opposite reaction exerted back.

Because there is a limited frictional force (a force exerted by an object when an object moves across it) between

  • the canoe and
  • water surface (the opposite force/reaction)

Here, the paddle helps the boatman apply a force on the water, resulting in the opposite amount of force been sent back; pushing the boat forward.
